Keywords: Abstract Journal Impact Factor Background: Journal Impact Factor (JIF) has several intrinsic flaws, which highlight Bibliometrics its inability to adequately measure citation distributions or indicate journal quality. Alternative metrics Despite these flaws, JIF is still widely used within the academic community, resulting Citations and impact in the propagation of potentially misleading information. A critical review of the usefulness of JIF is needed including an overview of the literature to identify viable alternative metrics. The objectives of this study are: (1) to assess the usefulness of JIF by compiling and comparing its advantages and disadvantages; (2) to record the differential uses of JIF within research environments; and (3) to summarize and compare viable alternative measures to JIF.
